Barack Obama actually said...

A contractor may not set a limit on the total accrual of paid sick leave per year, or at any point in time, at less than 56 hours.

This order seeks to increase efficiency and cost savings in the work performed by parties that contract with the Federal Government.

I believe that all workplaces should reflect the worth and the dignity of our working families.

Providing access to paid sick leave will improve the health and performance of employees of Federal contractors.
